Summary/Abstract: The article examines the role of women in the Old Believer, sectarian, Baptists organizations in the territory of Vyatka province in the XIX — beginning of the XX c. The study is based on the documents extracted from the funds of the central and regional archives (the Russian State Historical Archive, the National Archive of the Republic of Tatarstan and the State Archives of the Kirov Region), as well as published sources presented by statistical data and regulations. Drawing on previously unpublished material, the authors showed the importance of women in preserving the confessional identity of religious associations, which were the object of severe persecution by the regional authorities and the official church.
